Hello,

Long time reader, first time poster.

I have a large dataset of relationships between "C Items" and "R Items". For a given "C Item" I would like to return each associated unique "R Item" only one time. Some "C Items" may have only one "R Item" and others may have fifty. I've included screenshots of a mock up of the data and the desired outcome I'm seeking to reach.

I imagine this is much easier than I'm making it but after going down a rabbit hole of countif's and index matching, its time to ask the experts. Any recommendations?
Thanks!
